Forgive me for my late reply to your question, but I've just joined Rootschat. 
I used to work in the area of Elmsall, Upton, Hemsworth, South Kirkby etc in the 1950's and Elmsall Lodge comes to mind. 
If you look on the Ordnance Survey Landranger series map, sheet 111, Sheffield, Doncaster, between Hemsworth and Upton you'll see Elmsall Lodge Farm.  Grid ref 455 134.  Even on the original Ordnance Survey map of 1864 as just Elmsall Lodge.  So it would seem that your Elmsall Lodge is a farm.

Hi I have a picture of the Lodge in question. I just don't know how to upload it, if I can?
